[Recovering_Democrat]

Perry's answer on immigration sounds a lot like Mitt's answer on healthcare: a state has a right to decide how to govern its own problems.

I think both have good points.

[DRey]

Tell these dopes about the fence, Perry. DO IT.

[TornadoAlley3]

If Texans wanted the illegals to get in state tuition, Perry was correct. Will of the voters.

[World'sGoneInsane]

1,200 mile border he has patrolled, supported AZ bill, and only 3 reps vote no on the bill. He will not back down that they should get in-state tuition to educate these children.

[Glenn]

GO PERRY!!!!

AND TAKE ROMNEY WITH YOU!!!!

[CASchack]

Wallace has a thrill run up his leg when Mitt speaks.

[BAW]

He didn’t veto letting children of illegals pay for their own in-state tuition.

Even if he HAD vetoed it, the bill was passed with such a huge percentage of the texas legislature that he would have been overturned.

[GOPsterinMA]

I’m watching Scarface. That being said, if “His Rickness” is cracking skulls, it’s a prime example of “His Rickness” unleashing his mojo!

[jennychase]

Perry is toast.
He is done.

[bvw]

“They” — the dang moderators — are pushing Romney, Huntsman and bringing in Perry for chance to kick him.

Give MORE time to Bachmann, Cain, Gingrich, Santorum — THEY have the true solid conservative ideas.

[sillsfan]

Who woke Santorum up?

[Allegra]

Newt does come off well in these debates.

[unkus]

This Johnson dude presents himself as a strange flake . . . .

I think he smokes weed.

[AmericanInTokyo]

Perry: HUGE GAFFE on tax support for illegal alien students, out of your and my pockets. Santorum kicked his ASS

Now PERRY is being an arrogant, condescending jerk, he is screwing himself

[Recovering_Democrat]

Perry's answer on immigration sounds a lot like Mitt's answer on healthcare: a state has a right to decide how to govern its own problems.

I think both have good points.

[DRey]

Shut up, Santorum!!!

[Diogenesis]

RomneyBOT Wallace has at it vs. Ms. Bachmann,
asking her a complex question about immigration.
She does well in a conservative response and gets loud cheers.

RomneyBOT Wallace has at it vs. Gingrich,
asking him a complex question about E-card
and immigration reform.
He does well in a conservative response, even
suggesting E-card be run by a private company
and gets a few cheers to that, too.
He wants English as the official language in
government and gets LOUD CHEERS.

RomneyBOT Wallace continues the Perry Romney argument
and Wallace gives Romney a nuanced out.
Romney admits he cannot follow anything
which he has not memorized. He gives his
prepared response to something else.
RomneyBOT Wallace ignores the irrelevant response.

RomneyBOT Wallace turns to Perry and goes for the jugular
on immigration blaming him for the illegals, and bringing up
the DREAM acts. Perry brushes it off and purports
he is big on border security.
RINO Perry says he has a
"heart" and will support taxpayers' subsidizing
education and other supports for illegals.

[Pharmboy]

About what??

[LongWayHome]

Perry.....giving AWAY our nation one student at a time. What a joke. GWB-lite.

[Jane Long]

They’re all ganging up on Perry and the border’s issue.
